America’s Promise to our Youth

 

Rahway is a community that takes pride in the accomplishments of its students and staff. Our school system has resolved to keep America's Promise to students by providing them:

  • a relationship with a caring adult
  • a healthy start
  • safe and structured places to learn
  • academic proficiency leading to marketable skills
  • the opportunity to give back to others through community service

The symbol of these promises is the red wagon. This wagon reminds us all of children who carry dreams or burdens about their future in their wagon. Wagons have handles so adults can reach down and help a child pull the wagon to its destination. At one time or another each of us was the recipient of a helping hand. I encourage you to return the favor and get involved in the education of a child. To learn more about how you can help, contact any of our schools through this web page.  I encourage you to speak with parents, students and teachers to discover the good things happening in our schools.

The next time you see a red wagon think about how you can get involved and be part of our school community. Take the challenge and pick up that handle today!
